I am having trouble with the simulator

I am on the track building an with iOS using swift and am trying to run the simulator for funfacts. Whenever I do so, my view changes and I am getting an error message.

import UIKit

@UIApplicationMain class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {

var window: UIWindow?

The error seems to say Thread 1: signal SIGABRT

Here is my code if this is helpful

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

@IBOutlet weak var funFactsLabel: UILabel!

let factsArray = ["Ants stretch when they wake up in the morning", "Ostritches can run faster than horse." ]

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
 funFactsLabel.text = factsArray[0]
}

override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
    super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}


@IBAction func showFunFact() {

    funFactsLabel.text = factsArray[1]

}

}

you have an exception being thrown. scroll down in the console below where it says 

Thread 1: signal SIGABRT

and it should tell you whats throwing the exception. post what you find

Hi Stone, I restarted xcode and I no longer have the issue. I have no idea what caused it but its gone. My simulator doesn't look anything like the one in the video plus every time I run the simulator I have to wait for an entire start up. Maybe they edited the video to speed it up? Anyway, the problem seems to be solved for now. Thank you for responding.
